in 1996, a college educated friend asked me where are the BRAVEHEARTS in black history. we'd just been wowed by mel gibson's movie. it took me a while to understand that our bravehearts were ordinary men and women who decided to live their life. no fanfare. no glory. our bravehearts are those who decide to tell the tales of those ordinary men and women. thank you, sir.

i'd love your opinion on the links above.
Thanks for the info.! I went to the African-American History museum in Baltimore and I loved it! Have you been there? Of course you have! :)

Geoffrey-
Yes, sir. Thank you for stopping in. :)
Ever thought of compiling a book with all the heroes and heroines, with photos and anecdotes and so on, Stephen?
guyana-gyal,
I'm happy you mention this, because I've always thought Stephen would do a great job on something like that.
Ntate,
Thanks for sharing the knowledge...
GG and Rethabile-
My problem is I'm always thinking. I need to do more than just think. :)
Nevertheless, thank you for your support.
See, Rethabile agrees. Well Stephen, the blog is a great place to start, you can write your material here, then later gather it all into a book.
GG-
That's an idea. It would be great. I have a book in my plans. I'm gathering the material now (poetry and essay). Thanks for the support.
